| RAF North Creake |
|
File Description:
RAF North Creake is a former Royal Air Force station located 3.3 miles (5.3 km) southwest of Wells-next-the-Sea, Norfolk and 5.7 miles (9.2 km) northwest of Fakenham, Norfolk, England.
Originally used in 1941 as a decoy site for RAF Docking, construction of this Class A airfield began in October 1942, with the station being provided with accommodation for 2,951 male and 411 female staff. The airfield had 36 loop type hardstandings, two T2 hangars and one B1 hangar.
By December 1943 the airfield had passed to 100 Group, although it did not immediately become operational as consideration was given to upgrading the airfield to Very Heavy Bomber Standard. In the event, this did not take place, with RAF Sculthorpe being selected for upgrade.
Short Stirling III's from 199 Squadron arrived in May 1944 to complete Window and Mandrel operations against enemy radar tracking of Bomber Command raids, however, in March 1945 these were changed to Handley Page Halifax III's. In September 1944, No. 199's 'C' Flight was used to re-form 171 Squadron, who contributed to 100 Group's radio counter-measures activities with Halifaxes.
The RAF relinquished the station in 1947, and the area is now used for agriculture, though some evidence of runways, buildings and facilities remains. Seventeen aircraft were lost from the airfield, eight Stirling's and nine Halifax's.
The control tower survives, and has been converted into a house, offering bed and breakfast.

| RPLC - Diosdado Macapagal International Clark International, Philippines |
|
File Description:
This Afcad/AFD for RPLC - Diosdad Macapagal International Airport (previously Clark International Airport and Clark AFB) in Angeles City, Pampanga, Philippines was made with ADE V1.37 and is for the default RPLC airport in FSX.
Diosdado Macapagal International Airport is currently a significant low cost carrier and UPS hub for the Philippines and is under development - ultimately intended to replace Ninoy Aquino Airport, Manila (RPLL) as the Premier Gateway to the Philippines. Domestic traffic is currently limited to Cebu Pacific and South East Asian Airlines. The airport handles international traffic - AirAsia, Asiana, Tiger Airways, Hong Kong Express, Hong Kong Airlines and Transglobal - including their recently launched flights to Dhaka and Fujairah - as well as international flights for Asian Spirit to and from Seoul. Cargo use includes a very significant UPS hub, Yangtze River Express, Transglobal and Pacific East Asia Cargo Airlines. Philippine Air Force C-130's are also frequent visitors.
Aprons and taxiways have been changed as needed, additional cargo and airline specific maintenance aprons added, taxiways surfaced correctly, gates and parking spaces coded for airlines and aircraft types using the airport. Many buildings have been changed to be more representative of the real thing. The default airport lacks coding and sees little of the actual traffic coming to RPLC. Use of this file increases traffic and places them where they should park. Tested with WOAI, MAIW's Exotic Alberts Package Philippines Part 1 and custom AI.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the A2A North American T-6 Texan/Harvard in the colors of North American T-6G F-BJBF, 1970. Originally built as 41-33931 (c/n 88-14948), it went to the RAF as EX959. It was used by the 20 Service Flying Training School in Rhodesia from January 1943 onwards. After the war, it was transported back to the UK, where it was sold to the Belgian Air Force, where it became H-9. It flew from Brustem until 1959. The Belgian Air Force then sold it to Air France, with 14 other Harvards, for use at its flight school in Pontoise Cormeilles en Vexin, west of Paris. It flew with Air France until 1965, when it was sold to Mr Urbain of Cannes, who flew it in bare metal with a checkered rudder until 1971. This is the paintscheme depicted here. It then went to the UK, becoming G-AZJD. It remained based at Biggin Hill until 1984, when it went back to France as F-AZDU, being bought by Guy Robert, a former Mirage pilot who recieved his training in the '50's on a Harvard in Marocco. In 2001 it was sold to John Colors SL in Barcelona, but it retained its French registration of F-AZDU. It is still airworthy, based at Sabadell in Spain. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by A2A.

| "Red, white, silver, and black" Embraer EMB-505 Phenom 300 (N64RM) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a modification to one of the default liveries from Carenado. The original was the flag bearer of the Embraer sales team for several years but there are too many of the smaller brother Phenom 100s out there with the same paint job.
I removed all the drips and wrap around subtle coloring up front and now we have a solid white front end. I changed the weak orange looking color to a bright red for the wide bold stripe that tends to identify Phenoms and I replaced the orange stripe on the tail that makes the reverse C with the same bright red plus a white border to make it stand out. I added an American Reg Number just for the heck of it - N64RM.
This is a beautiful livery and should be just different enough to make you want to fly it often. It could make a personal aircraft for many Carenado Phenom 300 pilots. There will be a couple of slight changes to this livery down the road. I am working on one with a blue band and it will be N54RM. I'm not sure of the color for N44RM but it will be coming.
You will need to have the Carenado payware EMB505 HD Phenom 300 installed to use this repaint. It is for FSX, P3D, and FSX:Steam only.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Piper Super Cub Extreme for P3Dv5 by Flight Replicas. It shows SE-GCK. Piper PA-18-150 Super Cub c/n 18-7918, built in 1963, entered service with the Swedish Army Air Corps (Arméflygkar) as the Fpl 51B '51245'. Swedish military aircraft are identified by designations, consisting of a role prefix and a sequential number: the Piper PA-18-150 has not a special task and is a Fpl 51 (Flygplan). The Swedish defence forces originally used the Piper PA-18 Super Cub as an artillery observation platform for the Army. The first batch of six Piper PA-18-150 Super Cubs was designated Fpl 51A in Sweden and delivered in 1958. In 1959, a second batch of six Piper PA-18-150s arrived in Sweden. These aircraft were modified for military use and designated Fpl 51B. In 1963, a third batch of six Fpl 51B was delivered, including Fpl 51B '51245'. Totally six Fpl 51A and twenty-three Fpl 51B were flown by the Swedish defence forces. In 1973, the Fpl 51B '51245' was withdrawn from active service in the Army. On 12 July 1973, the aircraft was registered SE-GCK as a Piper PA-18-150 with a private owner and it is still airworthy in Swedish Army colors.
